Vaccinating older adults against COVID-19

Overview

The objective of this document is to identify successful strategies, enablers and examples of successful strategies to identify and offer vaccine doses against coronavirus disease (COVID-19) to older adults, especially in low- and middle-income settings.

The primary target audience for this document includes national and subnational managers of immunization and other programmes who deliver health and social services to older adults. Global, regional and country level stakeholders and partners (i.e. nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), community service organizations) who support the design, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of COVID-19 vaccinations and care for older adults may find this guidance useful as well.
